A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to Dekalb County in Illinois on September 26, 2024. The request was made by us at DeKalb Times, a media organization committed to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs.

The specific information requested includes a list of all payments made to vendors from January 1, 2024, through September 26, 2024. We asked for the following details: Vendor Name, Transaction Date, Transaction Description, and Amount.

As a news organization, we believe that access to public records is essential for us to fulfill our professional responsibilities. These include holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public. Given our role in disseminating information, we have also requested a fee waiver as a media professional.

We are awaiting a response from Dekalb County and will continue our efforts to ensure transparency and accountability in local government operations.
